It’s possible. But it will be incremental when it happens. I wouldn’t hold your breath.

It is public information that TJ admissions will be reaching back into the waitlist for the entire summer in an attempt to remain at 550 students for the Class of 2025.

That said, it is good practice to remove your child from the waitlist if you aren't planning on sending them. Don't be that crappy family that compares when your kid was accepted to when someone else was.

Most likely, students of the same (non-Asian) race will replace them. But officially, yes, from the same school until they fulfill each school’s quota.

There will be schools that do not reach their quota. When that happens, they'll move to the unallocated waitlist. This is where you'll see a lot of the movement towards Carson and Longfellow.

Mid of July - declined slots will be filing ..

Sometime after July 7th - kids from the same school MS will be filling that declined slot. The ratio must remain constant.

If your kid made courses selection at base school during 8th grade second semester, even though all honors , all As ... waitlisted..

I’ve heard in past years it was not right away. But this year the decisions came out SO late that it might be sooner.

Acceptances are due July 7. I guess if someone declines before then, they might fill that spot as soon as it opens. But you will know for sure after July 7.

I guess they might not fill that spot as soon as it opens. They will consolidate Acceptances and rejections, class sizes based on subjects in second week of July and then move the waitlist .. this year waitlist is tooo big.
